Sherbet Sea
Sherbet Sea is a court in the party game Smash Skate from Mario Sports Mix. This court is specially made for this party game and is not playable anywhere else in the game. It and Mario Stadium are the only two locations in the game where players play hockey on ice skates rather than roller skates. Penguins spectate the match in the background.
Sherbet Sea is a big rectangular block of ice in the middle of an ocean at night. In the background are icebergs with Penguins on them. The middle of the arena has a small block of ice that can be pushed by moving into it or hitting it a super shot or a check. If any opponents are in its way, the ice block will stun them. Ice blocks can be pushed off and cause the opponent to ring out and respawn, docking 20 points from their score. Players that push opponents off with ice blocks do not earn points. After ice blocks slide off, new ice blocks spawn from the sky, with their shadows indicating where they land. If they land on a player, they stun them.
If players get pushed onto the edge of the platform but do not fall off, they will have to shake the Wii Remote to continue playing. They are especially vulnerable to ice blocks pushing them off. If a player who is in their invulnerability period after getting pushed off comes in contact with the ice block, they will go around it. Near the end of the game, the platform will tilt, complicating movement. Ice blocks also slide from the tilt, and they can stun and push off players.
The unlockable version has three ice blocks on the court instead of one, making it easier to push players off the platform. The platform also tilts more often, and it can lead to the three ice blocks pushing all players off the platform.
